Le Fils à Maman

TLDR: It's all right when it comes to an extraordinary thing. Overall, I gave this place for the first time an attempt, I ordered the griot plate (UE delivery) imho a little pricy for griot, but at least it is a generous part with a lot of meat rice. The first bite is good, but the more you eat quickly realize that this is much too salty. In Laval there is a better smell. Traditionally and in many Creole Resto the griot meat can be very clobular pieces of fat, I don't like that, so I asked for lean pieces in my order and on their credit all pieces that we were very lean, which is great, only problem was that they were a bit too dry, which can be fair with lean meat... not a problem usually because you have a generous amount of sauce over it. The sauce, OH my God, I usually pour the sauce over my griot dish, happiness that I didn't do that! The sauce is basically liquid salt! You have to add a few drops here and there else the saltiness will exaggerate everything. It felt more like a pepper sauce instead of traditional griote sauce... The Plantain banana, is, okay, not great, I understand it, but it's not easy to remove crispy plantain on, and some people like it a bit muddy like that, but I prefer thinner cuts for Craspier planttains... I found another restaurant that really makes good plantains, although this is a problem with all the creoles I have tried so far. The macaroni side dish is just a useless distraction imho, I don't know why many creole place like to add this as a page, it is always mediocrely best, simply not necessary. I understand restaurants like adding a bit extra salt to improve flavors, but this is ridiculous... Unfortunately, it doesn't look like it's a mistake like other people also commented on how the food is too salty. This is regrettable if you had really griot before, you know that this dish is already deliciously full of taste, you really don't need this much salt. Too bad.

This is a nice little family restaurant, we went on a Sunday evening as a group to celebrate my brother's birthday. The food was very good. I had the cattle collection and chicken wing as appetizers. I enjoyed myself very much and I will go back.

It was really good first experience there and it was great. We had the « legumes » and a « fritay ». The presentation of the plates and the taste was amazing. Really enjoyed. Will definitely go back. Waiting was a little long, but overall?
